Firm ride

By: 
usnews.com

Pros
Fiercely styled for an SUV,
satisfying driving behavior,
cargo area and rear seat are spacious.

Cons
Some cheap interior bits,
no hybrid option to boost fuel economy,
pricier than nicer rivals.

By:

A very competitive posh crossover, but it fumbles some of Audi's traditional strengths.

Pros
Lots of equipment and tech,
practical,
striking to look at

Cons
The powertrains,
HMI and materials aren't as polished as Audi's norm
